I love the tower, probably my favorite of Melbourne's current boom. However, are they going to do anything about that hideous base? I notice one side has glass (and looks great). What about those white sides? Are they getting glass too?

Wow, I haven't been to Melbs since 2009 and now there are new towers next to Eureka as well as Rialto... And this 568 Collins is indeed a beautiful, sleek tower that perfectly complements Bourke Place as well as Rialto but what's with that rather unsightly base?

...wait...wait...it's not over till it's over...the base, I promise it is not what it seems right now...but then, who am I to know...I have no idea, but then...I often make statements that prove to be right...or wrong... : )
